US Customary - Metric

Equipment

8 ounce jars

Ingredients

1 -5 ounce container lemon yogurt
1 teaspoon lemon zest; about 1 lemon
½ cup milk; regular almond, or oat
2 teaspoon chia seeds
2 teaspoon maple syrup or honey plus more for drizzling
⅔ cup old fashioned oats
½ cup blueberries plus a few more to place on top

Instructions

Mix yogurt, lemon zest, milk, chia seeds, and maple syrup together in a bowl until combined.
Add oats, stir well.
Gently stir in the blueberries.
Spoon oatmeal mixture into 2 small cups.
Cover and chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
If all the milk hasn’t been absorbed, give it a stir before serving.
Drizzle with honey or maple syrup and top with a few fresh berries and lemon zest.

Notes

Using more or less oats in the recipe will yield a thinner or thicker finished product. I don’t recommend using less than ½ cup or more than one cup.

Use old fashioned oats, not steel cut for best results.

Greek or French style yogurt works best. Chobani and Oui each have a great tasting lemon yogurt.

Keeps for 3 days covered in the refrigerator.
